We’ve had a few questions about colour cards and photographic rulers in catalogue record images! These are included to help reference colour and scale in photographs of museum objects and are an important tool for documenting collections online! If you have other questions please do get in touch in the comments, by direct message or by sending us an email at [email protected]
